Created attachment 29703 [details] ebuild for air-1.2.3_beta3 The installer for air is not very conducive to the portage build system. To clean things up this ebuild requires the patch (attatched below). The only true build dependencies are perl-tk and sharutils and while not specifically required mt-st is an RDEPEND as upon execution it claims it is vital to useful operation. I didn't add netcat or cryptcat as RDEPENDS because they are only needed for specific purposes and the air gui warns the user to install them if they need certain functions.
Created attachment 29704 [details, diff] Eliminates hardcoded paths from install script This patch removes the hardcoded install paths so that the installer can be sandboxed by only modifying 2 variables.
Good ebuild Doug. Version commited
